It's not the best, it's just one of them,because I couldn't think of ten. But it's better than LOTR

Are there really 10 decent movies since 2000?

Personally, I would tend to doubt it.

But here goes:

1) The Royal Tenenbaums
2) Memento
3) In The Bedroom
4) Dagon ( excellent horror film)

okay, I'm really straining here..............

5) Lord of the Rings- FOTR (why not?)
6) Gladiator (it's a big, fun film)
7) The Score
8) Shadow of the Vampire
9) Bandits (a guilty pleasure)
10) Snatch (still more entertaining than Pulp Fiction)


There were some real gems in 1999, just one year behind:

1) American Movie (doc)
2) Blair Witch Project (finally, a real horror movie)
3) The Straight Story (David Lynch stoned on milk and cookies)
4) Mr. Death: The Rise and Fall of Fred A. Leuchter Jr. (doc by the incomparable Errol Morris)

Nasty, but my sentiments exactly.

Hell yeah. That movie rocks.


Here's 12, but the last one is 5 minutes long. So this is a top 12 list. It's not in any real order after the first two.

A.I. Artificial Intelligence
In the Mood for Love
Y Tu Mama Tambien
What Time is it There?
Far From Heaven
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
Beau Travail
Mulholland Dr.
The Fast Runner
The Wind Will Carry Us
George Washington
The Heart of the World
